An airplane?

I was driving down the highway the otherday enjoying the radio when suddenly i hear what seems to be a small aircraft flying at low altitude, maybe a cessna. I scanned through the sunroof window to see what type of plane it was. Unable to see anything I start concentrating on the road again when I see this civic, 2 lanes away from me with an exhaust gunning it trying to race me slowly walking me while im going ~75. I couldve swore it was a cessna.

Not really a kill but gave me a good laugh

Ya know that coffee can on the back of his car makes it go fast... Just like the big giant rear wing keeps the rear wheels down for traction, cause its a front wheel drive car..
